During this event, JLNWA asks that community partners and friends wear the same black dress to work, play, etc. for five days in a row to bring awareness and prevention to the domestic violence issue and symbolize some of the struggles victims and family members in this situation may have.

More ways you can participate in the LBD campaign:
1) By participating actively with the Junior League of NWA, wearing the same LBD, and sharing the staggering statistics of domestic violence
2) By donating directly to the Junior League of NWA to help #JLNWA continue to raise awareness and end the cycle of domestic violence. You can make a donation directly to this campaign by visiting https://www.juniorleaguenwa.org/littleblackdress/
